It’s almost February! And unlike last year and the years prior, I have something to look forward to! I have never spent Valentine’s Day with a special someone, nor at the very least spent the day of love in someone’s arms (that should be good enough, right?). And even if I’m gonna be spending the day of love this year by lonesome and loveless self, I’m not gonna be nega about it. At least I have something to look forward to.

I’m talking about Daybreak, a story about the dynamics of two men over the course of a day deciding whether to leave their partners and be together. Starring Coco Martin and Paolo Rivero and directed by the talented Adolf Alix Jr., Daybreak (from Bicycle Pictures) is a movie that many of us, gay men and straight-folk alike, will surely learn a lot from. Watch the trailer after the jump.

Synopsis (source)

“DAYBREAK” happens entirely in one place: a rest house in Taal, Batangas and only with two characters. In a single narrative time, intending by way of voyeurism, we discover what happens to two men spending one night contemplating whether to break up or continue their relationship. William and JP allow us to know their biggest lies and the biggest truths… two people loving each other, clinging to each other, betraying each other — trying the fragility of their feelings in only one night.

Memories and dreams, truths and lies, fears and desires, betrayal and honesty, love and hate are all closely entwined in this night.

Behind the veil of words, they are drawn to each other but will the light of the sunrise bring this intimacy to an end?

Reasons why I’m looking forward to watching this film?

This guy is brilliant! He is also down-to-earth, even if he already has written and directed films that Filipinos worldwide can be proud of. There’s Batanes, Nars, Tambolista, Kadin, and of course, Donsol — which was the country’s officialrepresentative to the Foreign Language Film category of the Oscars.

Second, it’s one of the few films (now growing to many) that have braved all odds and decided to delve on subject matter that is quite frowned upon here in this predominantly Christian nation. The story may be familiar to some gay men, but this one seems like it will disprove misconceptions that the many straight folk out there have about gay relationships. It’s more than just carnal pleasures that we’re after, you see. Judging from the trailer, it seems like this movie will show us (like Batanes did) that love indeed knows no borders.

Third, Coco Martin. Coco Martin is Coco Martin, just like Anna Dizon is Anna Dizon! Need I say more?
